It's a shame the 12V battery lets you down and you always have to carry a jumper. Fairly noisy, otherwise a good car.

I want to choose the Yaris Cross because it’s cheaper per month than the ID3 and because of the high step-in of the Yaris — we’re in our late 70s.

It would be desirable to improve its sound/noise insulation, increase the trunk capacity, add more power for the high beams, and offer more accessories.

After several cars from the VW Group and a long search, I chose the Yaris Cross — also because of the unusual gearbox.
